NEC Nijmegen vs FC Twente Enschede
FreeToday’s clash in the Dutch Eredivisie is between two sides who expect (and are expected) to finish in the top 8 of the table. The difference between them currently is that FC Twente Enschede are playing arguably the best football they’ve played in the last few years and NEC Nijmegen, despite a promising start, are on a worrying slump. Both of these sides are capable of playing good football, but I think it’s fair to say that the visitors are stronger than the hosts, both in squad and in form. For those reasons, I’ve decided FC Twente Enschede will want to pile the pressure on high-flyers AZ Alkmaar as well as putting distance between themselves and AFC Ajax Amsterdam and I for one think they will achieve it. My call for this game is 0-2!
Friday’s Picks
My tips:
As usual, my most recommended trebles are listed below in no particular order. However, what I will say is that if you want to add a bit of money to a treble, then add Unirea Urziceni to make it a 4-team accumulator. The reason for that is because I thoroughly expect the hosts to demolish their lowly opposition but the odds will be poor, so it’s worth having them in the bet at least.
Tours, Bohemians, St Patrick’s Athletic
Derry City, Empoli, FC Twente Enschede
FC Zwolle, Unirea Urziceni, Llanelli
The next bunch are games I’m happy with, but not quite as happy as the ones I listed above. The reasons vary from sides punching above their weight going to sides their equal to out-of-form very good sides facing poor opposition.
Boulogne, Montpellier HSC, Albinoleffe
VVV Venlo, MVV Maastricht, Welshpool
Lastly, we have the “risky” bets with the best outcome. I’ve listed these in order of likelihood, however:
Lokomotiv Plovdiv, FC Khimki, Drogheda United
Helmond Sport, Fortuna Sittard, AGOVV Appeldoorn
